1.2 Information on espresso coffee

Dear Customer,

Thank you for having purchased this Krups Automatic. We are sure you will enjoy both the quality

of the coffee it makes and how easy it is to use.

Whether you want a short, strong shot of a ristretto, a good espresso, a bigger and milder lungo, or

a creamy cappuccino, your automatic coffee / espresso machine has been designed so you can

enjoy the same quality at home as at the bistro, whatever the time of day and right through the week.

Thanks to its Thermoblock System, its 15 bar pump and because it uses real coffee beans that are

ground just before the coffee is made, your Krups Automatic will give you a drink containing maxi-

mum aroma, with a fine creamy golden brown top produced by the natural oils contained in coffee

beans.

Drink your espresso from small porcelain cups rather than the usual coffee cup or mug.

To obtain an espresso at just the right temperature and a nice compact creamy top, we advise you

to pre-heat your cup.

After a few trial runs you will find the type of mix and roast of the coffee beans that suits your taste.

The quality of the water used is obviously another essential factor in the coffee you make.

And make sure the water used is fresh out of the tap (contact with the air tends to make it stagnate),

that it is free from chlorine odours and cold.

Espresso coffee is richer in aroma than a conventional filter coffee. Despite its stronger, longer-las-

ting taste, espresso in fact contains less caffeine than filter coffee (about 60 to 80 mg per cup as com-

pared with 80 to 100 mg per cup). This is due to the shorter percolation time.

Due to the visibility of the containers and its automatic cleaning and scale removal programs, your

Krups Automatic is extremely easy to use.

1.3 Important: Safety instructions

• Read the instructions for use carefully before first using your appliance and keep them for refe-

rence: Incorrect use of the appliance will release KRUPS from any responsibility.

Activate the steam

function as explained

above.

PREPARING STEAM

n Steam froths up the milk to make a cappuccino or a caffe latte, for example, and also heats up liquids.

As you need a higher temperature to produce steam than to make an espresso, the appliance runs an

additional pre-heating phase for steam.

8

Caution! : Be careful, because the cycle does not stop immediately.

!

Note : We advise you to use very fresh, very cold milk. The milk and jug must be cold, ideally between 6 and

10 °C. We therefore advise you against putting the jug under hot water before using it.

dry it. Before putting it back, ensure that the air inlet holes are not blocked by

any milk residues. If necessary, unblock them using the needle supplied. Do not

wash the steam nozzle in the dishwasher.

Note : To interrupt the steam function, just press any key. Be careful as the nozzle may be hot.

If the nozzle is blocked, unblock it using the needle supplied.

The maximum duration for production of steam per cycle is limited to 2 minutes.

Steam does not come out of the

nozzle.

After switching off your appliance and leaving it to cool:

Make sure the tip of the steam nozzle is properly affixed. Make sure the

steam nozzle is not clogged at the aerator (if necessary clean the steam

nozzle aerator with the needle supplied). Empty the tank and remove the

Claris filter. Fill the tank with mineral water high in calcium (> 100 mg/litre

or .015oz/gallon), it may take as many as 5 to 10 cycles of steam at 60 se-

conds each cycle to achieve a continuous jet of steam. Once you have a

continuous jet of steam you should not have to use this particular type of

water again.

Not enough froth on the milk.

Using the needle supplied unblock the small air inlet at the top of the

nozzle if required.

Use a cold container and very fresh, very cold semi-skimmed and milk that

has been opened recently.

Try changing the type of milk if this does not work try UHT milk or skimmed milk.

The milk froth is too bubbly.

Check that the 2 ends of the small stainless steel tube in the flexible part

of the steam nozzle are fitted together properly.

The Auto-Cappuccino accessory

does not suck up the milk (ac-

cessory sold separately).

Check that the tube that goes into the milk is not blocked.

Check that the flexible tube is not twisted and that it is correctly fitted into

the accessory to avoid any air being sucked in.

After having turned the machine off and left it to cool, unblock the outlet

of the Auto-Cappuccino accessory.

The cleaning or descaling pro-

gram will not start.

These programs are only possible when the machine requests them

('clean' or 'calc' light on).

After having filled the water tank,

the light remains on.

Check for correct positioning of the tank in the coffee maker.

Check that the float at the bottom of the tank moves freely.

Rinse the accessory and if necessary remove scale.

After having emptied the coffee

grounds collector, the light

remains on.

Remove the collector, make certain that it is empty, wait for 8 seconds and

then fit it again.
